Man I need to find a hema club, I greatly enjoyed this. Seeing these videos,especially broadsword, just encourages me to want to learn it even more

@bdavies24 They are the feder style blades, although the earlier version called the Stoccata blade, originally developed for Stephen Hand in Tasmania. AC have now got an improved version of that one called the Manitoba blade, which Jay Maas helped develop. The newer one has some added distal taper and should feel a bit nicer.

@@historyandsabre yeah, you totally correct about my location, sir, and I even use their sabre (Easton model), but, I am afraid that they don't have serial broadsword yet, also, I really hope that they will. I've saw some attempts in their social medias.

What gloves do you guys use on your sword hand? Or the basket hilt is sufficient and you just use thin gloves?
@historyandsabre

These days I use the Thokk WeaponMaster Gauntlets for sabre. They are not perfect but I like them. I can't use them inside a basket hilt, so here I was just wearing thin gloves, which leaves the wrist unprotected.

@@zacman123333 Sure, I find the grip circumference too thick, which makes wielding it more taxing on my hand and also results in a less secure grip at the same time. I also find the blade wabbles/vibrates relatively strongly on impact. Otherwise, they are great and the construction is superb. Nothing too dramatic and I am still very impressed with Iain's work.

Whats crazy is in movies they make it seem like you gotta do these insane cuts to injure someone but in reality, the first hit would have cut through the shoulder and did some damage
@ohthreefiftyone

I don’t know about through the shoulder, but definitely into it. Probably would have ended a duel with honor satisfied. Depending on what tendons it hit or if it reached the artery in the arm pit, might take a military opponent out of the fight, but you wouldn’t want to bet on it.

Hi, they're from Armour Class in Scotland. You can contact them and ask for an infantry "dragoon" basket sword with a Manitoba HEMA blade and you'll get the improved version of what we use.

This is cool, but would be cooler if both were equipped with targes. Would be much more accurate to how the highlanders fought with their broadswords

Fencing with a targe is a slightly older style than what we're doing here. What you see here is a military style of universal swordsmanship on foot closer to 1800.
